One step out of the ordinary November 25, 2007

Truly an amazing book, if you happen to be at the stage where you have mastered the basics of home cooking, and begin to be bored by the ideas of Jamie or Nigella. Thomas Keller admits to his recipes being a little complicated at times, and they are, but they were definitely the next step for me. Oh, and you should not think that all his Michelin-stars and all those years in professional kitchens have taken Keller too far from average home cooks: in most recipes, he notes the things you might see and would probably be alarmed by and tells you how things look when they are normal and when you should start lowering the heat. If you're prepared to spend a few hours in the kitchen to get some "wow"-s and "oh my God, you're a genious"-s from your guests or family, buy the book.

If you want to cook Michelin standard recipes look no further than this cookbook from what many rate as the Best restaurant in the world. Although whether this Napa Valley restaurant is the worlds best may be a matter of personal taste, what is certainly not in doubt is the quality of this work. The recipes are clearly laid out with comprehensive instructions. All the recipes would be Michelin star winning in Europe and though not for the faint hearted are stunning and worth all the effort required.
The book is beautifully shot and is in itself a work of art.
It almost goes without saying that any serious amateur or proffessional cook should have this bible on their shelf. Superb (but from the best restaurant in the world you would expect no less!)

Though the recipes are intricate at times you are repaid with superb food. I have cooked numerous recipes and all have been fantastic. But more importantly it has taught me to refine all I do whilst cooking and has shown me just what can be achieved. Teamed with Bouchon they are a must.
Simply the best. January 15, 2007
